Gem of a restaurant ! So happy to find this place by Balboa pier ! Delicious authentic Italian restaurant ! Amazing find before our sunset cruise in Newport. All of the pastas were delicious and so flavorful ! The Bolognese was amazing as was the homemade tiramisu ! Nice little family owned place ! Highly recommend !
I Absolutely recommend this Italian restaurant! Great selection of food that taste super yummy! I had the gnocchi alla sorrentina: 100% handmade! And i finished with Torta della Nonna, delicious!!!
First timer, I love the service the restaurant and the food was delicious. The Argula salad, the soup and my pasta dish was delicious and creamy.
Oh my goodness can’t wait to return.
Almost missed this place, because the reviews are a few points lower than other spots in the area but let me tell you it's a good thing we walked by and ended up eating dinner here. The good was wonderful, staff and service excellent, and the place itself was very low-key in terms of the crowd. We didn't order drinks, couldn't find something on the beer menu I wanted to try but they do have a bar and a lot of wine options classified by variety on the menu. Tiramisu was a highlight, as it should be in an Italian restaurant. We also got the creme brulee which was immediately devoured. The dessert menu had maybe 10 options!

Tonight’s dinner was absolutely sublime. As a drink, I chose the Pantera Rosa and was delightfully surprised - the texture was smooth, the mixture a delicate balance that pleases the tastebuds but did not overwhelmed the senses. I had the Minestrone, which was delicious. For my main course, I had the Piccata di Pollo al Limone e Capperi. It was sensational. The chicken literally felt like it melted in my mouth and the lemon was just the right amount. It enhanced and did not overpower. The seasonal vegetables that accompanied the main course were done to perfection. I followed up with a dessert named Chocolate Temptation. It was a wonderful cap to the meal. Additionally, all of the staff but especially our server, Giancarlo, were amazing. Giancarlo ensured that we had a lovely and awesome dining experience from the time we walked in the door until the time we left. His recommendations were on point and he was gracious with answering the questions I had. He was amiable, humorous, knowledgeable, and attentive. I would be honored to dine at il Farro again, and I hope Giancarlo would be there to provide service as his presence culminated in a fantastic dining experience.
The food here was delicious. Our server was so kind and welcoming. Very authentic food.
Pizza by slice 🍕
Food: after bar hopping on a Saturday night, this is the place to get a good slice of pizza before you head home. Nothing too fancy but it hits the spot.
Service: the pizza maker was very kind, quick, and accurate with my order. Though the restaurant is closed, a window is open for you to buy pizza slices in the late night.
Final thought: You can't beat it when there is a late night Italian restaurant open to serve you slices of cheese and pepperoni pizza.
Food was delicious! Service was great! Owner was kind! Price is reasonable! Atmosphere is comfortable! Hygiene is great! We order compari soda, bread, linguine with clam (they have another fancy name), and pizza something parma. FYI, the bread is charged separately. However, only $4 and the dip well worth the price. Fresh garlic with spice. Yum!
This was a very good choice for our late dinner. We also had the beef carpacio which was excellent as an appetizer. The service was fantastic as well. Very reasonably priced dinner I definitely would recommend
